This is how Britain dealt with snow almost 50 years ago:

Fantastic editing - great synch with the sound. Loved that film.
Here's another one; possibly my favourite railway film. Mr
Cholmondely-Warner at his best in the intro.

I like the fact that they have someone with a 'regional' accent doing the
main commentary. His well-hidden accent sounds a bit like Michael
Parkinson's, which is Barnsley and therefore entirely the wrong area of
Yorkshire for the film. But the speaker sounds as though he spent most of
his Oxford years losing the accent, only to be told by Cholmondley-Warner of
the BBC to dredge it up again for the sake of a patronising commentary about
tough working class cheps.
I think that's the young Derek Guyler. Being a trained actor with a
"distictive" voice, he was probably told to "do Northern" for it.
